Among his successful Supreme Court cases are Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, challenging the policy of military trials at Guantanamo Bay Naval Station, and a defense of the constitutionality of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. He has also defended the Affordable Care Act in lower courts, including the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit.
His 2019 book, Impeach: The Case Against Donald Trump, was a New York Times bestseller. Katyal has appeared on every major American nightly news program, and played himself in episodes of Netflix’s House of Cards and Showtime’s Billions.
